Arima's other water: the clear, colourless ginsen, carbonated and radium-bearing, in a quieter uphill bathhouse modelled on the bath Hideyoshi is said to have used. The operator states the water is partly recirculated, there is no open-air bath, and there is little room to linger.

Scored from official photos, maps and transport information — not from a visit.

The baths

Indoor bath

Indoor rock bath modelled on the bath Toyotomi Hideyoshi is said to have used, plus a bubble (vibra) bath. Uses Arima's ginsen — colourless carbonated and radium springs — rather than the brown kinsen. Partly recirculated water.
